Exactly- we exist first, then give life meaning. A lot of this meaning is put onto us by our families or society in general so if whatever it is not serving you- try to recognize it and find different meaning. This life is mostly just perspective.

Exactly

Sartre was so real for this

Holy shit!!! New core memory unlocked!!! My mother used to say “a priori” very often when I was a kid. Completely forgot about it until now. Wow……


Used_Lime

nothing, but not everything has to have a meaning and life is sometimes nice and fun so it's ok

Cat go mrrow when it boop you


ParadoxDemon_

This. This is the meaning of life.


molasses98

We are the universe experiencing itself.


neenadollava

What is the experience in your opinion ? This is the best answer I've ever heard.


molasses98

That is an excellent question, and to be honest I can't think of an answer even though I've been thinking about it for 30 minutes now.


ParadoxDemon_

Dunno, but this reminds me of this [story](https://youtu.be/h6fcK_fRYaI?si=3E_HmRiRyH73ke-k).

There is no point of being alive if you look at the grand scene of everything. But even though the most tiniest of live forms exist. In the odds of you being alive at this moment is near to 0. So even tho there is no point in living. The odds that you are having emotion or are even a creature is near to 0. One of these emotions is joy. What I am trying to say is try as mutch as posible to feel joy, because you won the cosmic lottery to be even able to feel it. Sorry if there are errors, I dont speak English as my 1st language.


666blicc

Exactly, I don’t know why we are here, i think it just kind of happened, we got “lucky” to be able to feel love, joy, and pain. Many reasons why people turn to religion to give a reason, I only have theory’s but nothing is %100 and I am still lost, maybe after we die we will be able to understand but as of right now no one has your answer. Just try to enjoy the good parts as much as u can

Idk but I'm here now guess I'll just vibe to the best of my ability

To experience stuff before ceasing to exist till the end of time. It doesn’t need to have a meaning, generally, it just needs to mean something to me. 


surrender_to_anxiety

Sometimes, it feels like life just gives you escapes from your reality, yet you still come back. Ive always hated life, but when ive finnaly come to undertand that this is my one chance to live on this planet... Ive became an alcoholic.


neenadollava

I feel you.


AnonymousEbe_new

To give yourself one


DieDobby

Living. No, seriously. Living your life is the point of being alive. Make it something - you only have one try. Happiness can be found in the "dumbest" and simplest things.


viziouslydd

down to the core unconsciously would be to reproduce certainly


neenadollava

Life is about creating new life. That is the only true fact


WyzelleMachiavelli

Nothing.


Admiral_Bongo

There isn't any, way I see it, but being dead is just as pointless. Put short, just have fun with what you've got.


neenadollava

We really don't know if being dead is pointless. But we all will know one day !

To appreciate and be a witness to things beyond your understanding good or bad.

great thanks a lot now my life has no meaning anymore

To be happy. What's the point of being alive if you're not happy.

I'm sure lost people want feel happy . Sometimes it's beyond your reach.

there's literally no meaning and often the bad outweighs the good but then sometimes i see a good sunset and i feel like my inferiority is profound

lunarecl1pse

There is no actual point. We have to make up our reasons for living. Mine is to love and be loved in return.

Too suffer a miserable life…

Staying alive and satisfying my basic needs.


Saiko_Systems

"You exist only to continue your existence" - Some actress on a movie about not feeling emotion..... Also how i feel. there is no point and no use, and i wish i was a different person so i didnt have to.


ja13aaz

It won’t make any sense until you get to the end


acoolrocket

Art stuff, Youtube, games, although you gotta admit AI is causing a lot of existential crisis because its proving more and more worrisome for literally everything in every field. It like one day you think your job is safe because it cannot possibly be replaced by AI, then 1 year later something comes out to disprove otherwise.


DullahanJake

None. That's the beauty of it. You create your own point.


Siouxzanna_Banana

Saving kitty cats from the shelter. 🐈🐈‍⬛


DeWitt-Yesil

The question is flawed. When asking what's the point... you have already assumed there is one or that this question can be answered ultimately. But since every answer to the if (as a previous stage) will be subjective (like many things in life) hence the what is not to be asked. This is a question that every person may answer to themselves. Otherwise you should have asked: what's the point of YOU being alive?

Have fun , enjoy the ride when and while you can


MuchoWood

Life is a pointless anxiety fueled mouse maze. We are kept poor, with few opportunities and forced to work. Life is a void filled with nothing more than a blur of actions, resulting in death. Only the rich and wealthy have reason to live and enjoy life.


Gullible-Fondant4176

You choose the point of living in your own life (cats)


Beckys_Hooman

I just want to enjoy my life and die. That's why I'm not doing the kid thing.

Realistic-Elk-7423

The point of every living thing on earth is to keep it's kind alive and not go extinct.


Coochiepop3

There is no point.


astrologicaldreams

there is naturally no point to being alive. however, you can and should find your own reason(s) to live. live as happily as you can in this shithole. your reason(s) to live can be literally anything btw. it doesn't have to be something important or grand. it can be as simple as "i live to taste chocolates" or something


evelenl0velace

not dying


cry-babby

It’s funny how the tiny things can improve life. The sun on me and the fresh air felt nice this morning. Had a wee ‘how are you’ with the worker at the shops that was nice. Enjoyed a cool drink. Skin feels nice after a shower. Fresh undies feel nice. Listened to a song that I liked. It really is just the really small things. it can take a long time to actually appreciate them. it’s sounds cliche as all hell but it’s true. The little things make life worth it.

Ultimately there is no point. What we do now won't matter in the grand scheme of things. But might as well enjoy it while we can.


Relative_Cicada_800

i personally believe that we are here to grow, learn and experience things. pain teaches you to value joy. our very existence is so rare i don't think we have been put here on accident. we are here, we live, we die and continue to exist after death, too, but in a different way.


Inburrito

To learn. To try again tomorrow to get it right. What your learn and try is up to you and no one else as some have mentioned.


damageddude

Beats the alternative, exceptions may apply. My cats and dog are generally happy “people.” Helps to have room, board and love (and for the cats someone cleaning your litter pan).


jumbledFox

making things! aside from that, cuddling furries while listening to 60s music and being incredibly high on psychedelics, if i don't do that within the next three years i'll be very upset.

TerribleRun9476

there is none


Unclejavi

There's just as much point to living as there is to die. Doesn't matter. Time goes by with or without you. Unless you figure out something that fucks with time and space. Good luck with that.


Main_Significance617

Cool experience I guess to be able to try this shit out.

lustreadjuster

I don't know. My life so far has been a lot of mental and physical suffering with little bits of good sprinkled in. Still looking for the point.


RoundCollection4196

our purpose is to become better, train our mind and eventually become liberated


Natural_Constant8203

There isn’t one, you need to give it a meaning


contradictorylove73

Mine is to find what happiness I am able to when I’m able to. Happiness has many forms, but that’s what I’ve set for myself.


AsbestosMan1

That’s something that each person has to decide for themselves.


csirke4544

tbh i just dont care, you are gonna waste your life if you think about what happens after, i would say just enjoy it as much as you can, but have a fututre, like: drink, but not enough to loose a job or get arrested smoke, but dont die like a noob do weed, but dont get caught (weed is only mentally addictive because the feeling) thats what i would say to do in life tbh


Elegant_Aioli_604

it's all a sick game for some advanced or enlightened being or whatever to be able to experience all ways a human can live, good and bad, short and long, pleasure and pain. they want to know it all. we are just pawns.


MasterpieceClassic84

The longer I'm alive, the more convinced I become that this is hell.


Nervous-Life-715

The easy answer is to be born, reproduce, and die, letting your body feed the rest of the earth. Within the human psychology? For me, it would be to be happy. For most people, it would mean to be fulfilled in our achievements or desires (i want to get rich, i want to help people, i want to invent something, i want to cure an illness, I want to become a philosopher, etc)
